I am sort of surprised by this amendment. It seems to me that if we want to have control over the contracts in the procurement process, if we want Congress to be able to know what is going on, if we want to be able to save money, which is…
There will be a number of amendments offered in the next little while by Mr. Garamendi, by Ms. Lee, myself and Mr. Jones and by others all in various ways seeking to speed our exit from Afghanistan. I support them all. Two weeks ago, the…
I won't take 5 minutes. I rise to speak in support of the Lee amendment, which I have the honor of cosponsoring. My views on Afghanistan, I expressed a little while ago, but I just want to make a couple of comments. The gentleman from…
